Hi!
It is not on separate tab, because we have enough tabs now ;-). Export/Import name is long, it would b almost same. Even current layout won't fit on 800 pixels..... If you will find one (short) word for Export/Import tab....
How about the term 'External'?
Better would be to move Empty and Drop links (they are not used too much, and I see no reason why to have separate tabs for them) on Operations tab and add Import tab. How about that?
Hm, I know of many people who've gotten used to those tabs -- including me and all people whom I instruct usage on phpMyAdmin.
Otherwise I would like to see the insert-Link in the 'Insert' tab. Second chocice for me would be the 'Operations' tab.
